This is a very good question. After all, this one of the most important parts of our job in this business by promoting.

SFI has provided a general hit tracking system for their domain links for SFI and TripleClicks. There we can keep track during the week how often your links are being visited. But how do we make these links for effective?

First, creating your own keycode system is the first step. You can use numbers correlating to what type of advertising the link is connected to. For example, 123... 1 is for free advertising. 2 is for which advertising sight assign the number 2 to. 3 pre-assign a number for whatever else you feel is important to note.

Second, keep track of which ones are being hit not necessarily the most but which one get more conversions. That is, how many actually sign up after visiting your link.

Third, focus on the successful areas but continue experimenting. There are places where I am able let my links sit and be searched and they do get hit and even sign ups without any money. I don't do much with them so I would never take it away even if I get just one sign up every few months. The successful areas are found in the ratio of time/money per conversion.

Creating your own unique domain like a blog or website is very important as you essentially want to be "unique" out there. Unfortunately SFI does not have an area to keep track of hits when you do this but there are services that you can sign up your link to track your hits.

I know this is an area I am currently studying more on and I know I need to do better at. But I am finding that record keeping is very important. I am also currently trying to create an excel system to keep track of my hits.

I hope this helps. There is also a training chapter on this subject at https://www.sfimg.com/Training/Lessons/49?referrer=search and https://www.sfimg.com/Training/Lessons/50?referrer=search
